Summary of the Invention This invention relates to novel air treatment gel compositions comprising, in an aqueous medium, at least one volatile air treatment agent and a polymeric gelling agent consisting essentially of seaweed gum and guar or guar derivatives, wherein the bulk density of said composition is greater than about 0.9 g/ml. It also relates to the gel composition comprising, in an aqueous medium, at least one volatile air treatment agent and a polymeric gelling agent consisting essentially of seaweed gum, guar or guar derivatives and additional non-sulfated water-soluble polymer wherein the bulk density of said composition is greater than about 0.9 g/ml.
Utilisation of guar or guar derivatives in the air treatment gel compositions improves dimensional stability and freeze thaw stability.
Detailed Description of the Invention In the context of this specification, the term "consisting essentially of' is hereby defined as limiting the scope of the composition to the specified materials and only those additional ones that do not materially affect the basic and novel characteristics of the composition.
The seaweed gums for use in the compositions of this invention are those polysaccharides isolated from a number of species of marine algae. They include agar, alginate, carrageenan, fucoidan, furcellaran and laminaran. The preferred seaweed gums are carrageenan, alginate, agar and furcellaran, and the most preferred are carrageenan and agar.
Carrageenan is a sulfated polysaccharide derived from red algae. It is reported to be 'composed principally of a-D-galactopyranose-4-sulfate units and 3,6-anhydro-a-D- 20 galactopyranose units. At least three forms are known, designated, respectively, as iota, kappa and lambda carrageenan, which differ in the ratios of the two galactopyranose units and accordingly in their sulfate ester content. All three forms are suitable for use in the invention. The kappa and iota carrageenans are preferred, and the kappa is most preferred.
25 In the context of this invention the term "seaweed gum" also includes commercially available crude carrageenan materials generically known as "alkali-treated seaweed" or ATC. It is also known by various synonyms such as, processed eucheuma seaweed (PES), seaweed flour, seaweed gum, eucheuma gum, cellugeenan, ATG, and ground seaweed.
Agar is a polysaccharide isolated from various species of red-purple seaweeds. The structure is thought to be predominantly repeating units of alternating p-Dalactopyranosyl and 3,6-anhydro-a-L-galactopyranosyl units coupled 1-3.

When used, the optimum amount of salt is variable and will depend on the particular salt chosen and particular mixture of gums WO 98/19717 PCT/US97/18965 -7employed. The amount of salt may be adjusted to obtain particularly desirable properties in the product gels. Generally they will be used at levels of from about 0.1% to about based on the total weight of the composition.
It is often desirable to include in the gel formulations antifreeze and/or humectant ingredients.

-C
20 carboxylic acids, sodium stearate.
In addition, the aqueous medium of the air treatment gel can contain carrier agents which provide increased solubility for the particular oils, fragrances and insecticidal ingredients used. They may be present in the gel in the range of from about 1% to about Typically, the carrier agents are water miscible solvents in which the oils, fragrances and insecticidal ingredients are at least partially soluble. Examples of such materials are isopropanol, ethylene glycol, glycerol, propylene glycol, hexylene glycol, cellosolve, or the like.
The air treatment gel compositions of the present invention are typically prepared as follows. The seaweed gum, guar or guar derivatives and additional non-sulfated watersoluble polymer (if utilized) are blended and then dispersed in water. Solution is effected by stirring and heating at a temperature between about 60°C and 90°C until the polymers are completely dissolved. The solution is then cooled to about 60°C, and the other ingredients are added. Further cooling to approximately room temperature provides the air treatment gel composition. Before gelation the solution typically will be poured into a suitable container or mold so as to provide a gel having the desired shape.
The product gel compositions of the invention are sufficiently rigid to be generally free-standing, yet are sufficiently flexible to resist crumbling or breaking. They exhibit low syneresis, separation of liquid from the gel, high gel strength, and good freeze/thaw and storage stability. They generally have sufficient strength so that they will not sag but will be maintained in the container so that air can easily and freely contact the surface to WO 98/19717 PCT/US97/18965 -9transfer the volatile ingredients to the surrounding room or space. If desired, gels with lower rigidity can be prepared by reducing the level of the polymeric gelling agent.

Examples 1-24 and Comparative Examples A-E The procedure for preparing the gel compositions of these examples was as follows. Water was heated and stirred at 90'C. The polymers and inorganic salts were dry blended and then sifted into the vortex of the stirred water. Mixing was continued for minutes at 90'C, and then the solution was cooled to about 75°C. At this point any other ingredients exclusive of fragrance and dye were added followed by mixing for minutes. Then the fragrance and dye were added followed by mixing for 5 minutes. The resulting mixture was dispensed into a plastic jar and allowed to cool.
Gel strength is the amount of force (in grams) required for a 1.27 cm diameter probe to press the gel by 2 mm. The test was run on a Voland-LFRA Texture Analyzer.
The results reported are the average of three determinations. Samples were aged at room temperature for at least 24 hours before testing.
For the dimensional stability test an approximately 40 mm high x 40 mm diameter gel sample as place in a 100 mm high x 50 mm diameter glass jar. The jar was capped and the sample was placed in an oven at 51 C. The change in dimension of the gel at 51 0
C
was determined after 1 and 4 weeks. The values are presented as percent of the original dimensions.
For the freeze/thaw test a hot solution of air treatment gel was poured into a 118.3 ml glass jar. The uncapped sample jar was allowed to cool to room temperature for 2 hours, and then the jar was capped and allowed to stand overnight at room temperature.
The capped jar was then place in a -5°C freezer for 20 hours and then removed and kept at room temperature for 20 hours. The sample was then tested for gel strength as above.
The values in the tables are the average of 3 measurements.
Results are presented in Tables 1, 2, 3 and 4. For comparison, the gel strength of two commercially available cone shaped air fresheners was determined. These were WO 98/19717 PCT/US97/18965 12- Renuzit® Longlast Adjustable Air Fresheners: Bath Boutique, and Nature's Orchard. The gel strength of(a) was determined to be 127 g at top, 173 g at the side and 78 g at the bottom. The gel strength of(b) was determined to be 135 g at top, 175 g at the side and 89 g at the bottom.
The results in Tables 1-4 indicate that the compositions of this invention have gel strengths at least as high as those exhibited by commercially available air fresheners.
Comparative Examples A-E all lack guar or guar derivatives. The compositions of Example A exhibit poor dimensional stability, and those of Examples B-E exhibit inferior freeze thaw stability when compared to compositions of the invention.
